If the official diesel price for road transport 10 ppm, excluding VAT, increases or decreases by 4% each time compared to the price of 01 Jan 2010, the following diesel formula will take effect:

  • New Price = Base Price + 1% in case of increase in diesel price
  • New Price = Base Price – 1% in case diesel price decreases
  • Adjustments will happen the 1st day of each new month in case of sufficient increase or decrease in diesel price.
  • Diesel clause is limited to 0% and does not accept negative diesel surcharge
    Calculation:
Increase or decrease in diesel price for road transport 10ppm
> New price
Between + or - 4% and 7.99%
> Base price + or - 1%
Between + or - 8% and 11.99%
> Base price + or - 2%
Between + or - and 12% and 15.99%
> Base price + or - 3%

As a reference basis, we take the diesel price from the federal government’s website:
